stalker will be good.

i think so also

Based on what?

That its been in development for 5 years?

using out dated technology?

Got Alpha demo!

look @ steam when the source code was 'stolen' it went back into development for 3 years

But it will have outdated gameplay mechanics.

It doesn't do anything new.

by the statement doesnt do anything new is just plain silly look @ the amount of people still playing quake games and ET they dont do anything new there built on solid game play of CTF and whatever ET's gameplay is capture and hold

i still have the Alpha demo it was solid and the movie that i saw of stalekr just then hosted @ GA still looks ok

but if you dont like it thats fine just dont buy it and start complaining how they should of done this and that

Finally got vista installed, but the funny thing is i didnt do anything different.

I had the first half on my 74gig raptor for xp, then the last half broken into 3 pieces - 15g for Ubuntu, 7gig a swap partition, then a free 7 gigs...

Installed vista on the last partition and it worked...

Basically doing not what they recommend to do - to have all the os's up the front of the partition blocks.

Once it was in (in the small 7 gig space) i had to delete the middle 2, and resize vista to take over....

Now ive got 30gig fer xp, and 30 for vista :domokun:

  • 2 weeks later...

My mates and myself have just started to capture some of our gaming. And I've been trying to make some short clips. Just for fun.

If ya wanna check out some of our vids, there Here one our site :P

cool

Fraps is a sweet program - will make a 3rd MajorTangles BF2 fraps video soon (first 2 are linked in the sau games discussion section; 1st one didnt work out that well, 2nd one is funny IMO), will do it on shock paddle kills for say 50% and the other 50% would be footage of a variety of say a minimum of 4kill efforts.

Ok Madaz, that must mean that commodores and falcons are the best cos people keep buying them.

CSS is boring plain and simple. It was good 7 years ago, but i've since gotten bored of it and have been playing other games.

I'm sure stalker will be a confident game but it will offer nothing new to the genre, as has been the case for many years now. And there is nothing on the horizon that suggests that will change.

Gaming really has become boring since the playstation era.

Thats really a personal thing. I never got into ps much, but my friends had em, and i played em. TBH the only game i ever got into was gran turismo...

I need at least 2 or 3 games to play at the same time cos i get bored too easy..

I don't think it's a personal thing.

Gaming has lost all originality since the playstation era. Sure there have been a few new franchises but almost everything is a sequal.

There really hasn't been many significant gameplay changes for a while now, but then again, do games need innovation to be fun? Have you picked up and played a Wii for any amount of time?

I've recently gotten back into RTS's with the release of Supreme Commander but I really don't see any major gameplay innovations for a sequel that was released 10 years after the original, it is still a lot of fun though!

I just want more titles like Okami, Loco Roco, we love katamari, etc, etc.

I've been gaming for 18 years or so now and i just find it the same old thing.

I took the company PS3 home the other night, and it really wasn't all that interesting. It doesn't do anything that can't already be done.

And GT HD is shocking, it's the same as GT1 only with better graphics.

Unfortunatly old bastards like myself (gaming for 20 years +) and yourself have seen pretty much everything thats been around. Back to the old Atari 2600...:D

Nothing new in terms of genre of gaming has been released up until recently with the Wii and its wave your arms around like your being attacked by a swarm of bees type games....

If you find something u like rpg, fps, etc...its always "how could they make this better" type of thing not "what can we do that hasnt been done before...?"

call me ignorant but i think the whole m$ and xbox thing is a piece of shit. I dont consider myself a fan of either of the "big two" in gaming consoles either. ps3 is more of a hard core console and I think its biggest titles and developments in features will be realised in the future when developers get used to its SDK environment. The new metal gear looks so cool.

All three consoles will have great titles, thats why i have about 20 different consoles.

Some games i can only get on certain platforms so it's not the manufacture that sways my gaming habbits, it's the games.

So as long as good games come out on ps3, 360, and wii i will continue to buy them.

after owning an original ping pong machine in the late 70's, a Commodore 64 through the 80's, Pentium in the early 90's, Nintendo, Playstation and Playstation 2, plus a full deck Pentium now........... I dont think Id ever get back into a console machine for gaming, a good PC does it all in my opinion.

as far as games go, console games are too expensive. Only played two games in the past 18 months both of them being online games 1st was day of Defeat: Source for 3 months, plus 40mins only of Counter Strike: Source (hate it, what a terrible game full of free hacks), but the past 850hours of gaming Ive spent on Battlefield 2. What an awesome game, every round there is something 'different' to do or try out.

    • Meh, I think we're well into a new era of 90s JDM car. The days when spare engines and parts were cheap and plentiful are long gone. Therefore the YOLO approach is now massively difficult to justify, use and maintain. One should start to ponder whether an 800HP build is really justified, using stock parts. My thoughts? If you like/love the car and want to keep it and don't want to ruin yet another one, then be discrete about how much you ask from the stock parts. A 5 or 600 HP build is still a very fast car. If you want to go silly, have to have the 1000HP territory, then just drop all your cash, buy billet everything (or PRP cast block, etc etc) and use a bigger/more modern gearbag, and put a massive retrofit diff and axles into it. If you ruin any of those things then you're either ham fisted and deserve it, or you're pushing waaaay too far for the stock stuff anyway. The (presumably) young guys who are buying 30-35 year old busted arse Jap refugees and thinking they can live the life that was lived by others 20 years ago are deluded. Expectations need to be adjusted somewhat.
    • Just don’t be silly enough to think it’ll never happen either 
    • I take it that you bought the centre to suit the GTR axles? As in there was a plan, not just somehow lucky that it worked? It all looks excellent, by the way.
    • New engine block time. Up to you whether you want to keep going down this road with this project. Unfortunately a lot of these cars are like this. The road to getting these cars into decent shape is long and not fun for reasons that you're discovering. 
    • Essay time. First things first, an RB running stock turbo and boost levels shouldn't get so bad as to stall from reversion if the recirc valve has been deleted. Should get a little fluffy and annoying, but in my experience, not so bad as to stall. Of course, every car is a bit different, so it remains possible that stalling will happen. So, running with no recirc valve is somewhat of an option, for otherwise stock stuff. Atmo BOVs cause all sorts of shit, even on an otherwise stock setup. Only gets worse the higher the boost and the bigger the turbo. At that point you really need to go for a different ECU and no AFM. Rebuilding the stock recirc valve configuration is not hard. You just need a stock or aftermarket BOV with the appropriate adapter for the 2 bolt flange on the back of the J pipe, and to get/make an appropriate ~1" pipe to get the air back to the turbo inlet, and to possibly modify the inlet (if it is not stock) to take the recirc pipe back in. Not hard. Just takes some cutting and welding. Putting an R35 type AFM into the car anywhere is not as simple as just buying the AFM and throwing it in. You will also need to buy the appropriate boss that will then need to be welded onto the pipe where you're installing it. You can clearly see why by looking at the photo posted above. They are not a "simple" swap for a stocker. You can't put on in place of the stock AFM. You can put one in place of the stock AFM, if you get the mounting boss and weld it to some pipe and otherwise make that pipe piece work like the stock AFM housing. Or you can buy such an adapter, either complete with the 4 bolt flange for the air box, or without, for varying degrees of work needed to then make it fit your stock airbox or some pod filter or whatever you have going on. Oh, and the R35 AFM is not plug and play. The wiring is different, but changing that is trivial. The plug is also different so you either end up repinning the original wires onto the new plug, or you just use a short adapter. If you weld a boss to the cold side pipe, the cold side pipe really wants to be 3", otherwise the scaling on the meter can get a bit weird, but whatever the pipe size, it's not as easy as just using the (fully documented in the Nistune doco) simple method for choosing R35 AFM in X" pipe size in the software, because the scaling will already be a bit different. Anyway, all of this has been comprehensively worked through on the Nistune forums, so there is full knowledge available. I would use a Link/Haltech before I would bother putting an AFM into a cold side pipe. That's a lot of effort for a bodge. Nistune is great, can work well even at fairly high power levels, but you are stuck with the limitations of it being the stock ECU, which includes needing to use an AFM, which is not always convenient for every set of modifications. You have to have a think about what you already have, what you want to have, and decide early if you'd be better off jumping ship to an aftermarket ECU. This so you don't waste time and money doing things 2 or 3 times. Never heard of ECUmaster. Sounds like a backyard operation. If there are good tuners for it where you are, and it is a solid product, then it will be fine. We're only talking about an R engine here. Back in the day they all ran on crude nasty early 90s ECUs and they were fine. You don't need a rocket surgeon's ECU to run one.
